{tai} is a selbri tag there, which means it implicitly tags {zo'e}.

{ci'omle} is an alternate form of {citmle}, which has been in the 
dictionary for a long time, but some prefer the sound of {ci'omle}. Both 
mean "cute". I guess I'll add {ci'omle} as well, didn't know it hadn't 
already been added.

Well, it can help some people to understand what {lo} really means, when 
other explanations didn't work.
